I am not sure if law already exists to forbid hiring illegals. But even if it did, how can the employer verify
legal status? There is no federal data base of legals versus illegals. So the law is meaningless, if it exists.
I pretty sure it’s illegal because they arrested some contractors here in the greater Cincinnati area for doing it.
You are probably right about the database, though.
I will admit that I’m really uncomfortable with citizens being required to carry some kind of citizenship ID. A birth certificate kept at home is OK with me, but I don’t want to encourage big brother. The NSA spying troubles me.
